Here's a link to a fellow doing his own adapting work to install a Lightning blower on a 5 Liter: Lightning blower pics, fabwork
One question I would ask myself is if it is worth the time and money over just purchasing a used aftermarket blower kit? With new blower kits starting $1900 for you 5.0 guys, a used one has to be able to be found for $1000. 5-6psi on an already efficient motor like yours can produce some extremely nice results for the amount of money spent.
